Predictive Value of Ablative Margin Assessment After Microwave Ablation for Local Tumor Progression in Medium and Large Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Computed Tomography-Computed Tomography Image Fusion Method Versus Side-by-Side Method.

Compared with the side-by-side method, the CT-CT image fusion method is more accurate in assessing the AM of eccentrically ablated lesions and shows better predictive value for LTP. The min-AM based on CT-CT image fusion assessment is an important influencing factor for LTP.
